  1. Your loss is a tough one for all of us, Elaine. You were the epitome of kindness and grace. You made a difference while you were here with us. You were a shining star.

  2. Jim and family,
    I am so so sorry for your loss of Elaine.
    She was such a sweet person and I always loved her messages. We went back and forth with all the good and of course bad things that life throws at us.
    We had a connection, and I will miss her terribly.
    I know she is hugging your girls and with Nancy.
    God Bless and many prayers and much sympathy.
